Digi ConnectCore® 8M Nano System-On-Modules (SOM)

Digi ConnectCore® 8M Nano System-On-Modules (SOM) are designed for industrial reliability and embedded devices’ 10+ year product lifecycle. These SOMs feature up to 4x power efficient Arm® Cortex®-A53 cores and 1x Cortex-M7 core that minimizes power consumption while maintaining a high standard of performance. The 8M Nano SOMs feature TrustFence® for critical security and data privacy capabilities, XBee® integration, and Remote Manager® for remote monitoring and management. These SOMs operate at -40°C to +85°C temperature range, -50°C to +125°C storage temperature range, and 5%RH to 90%RH (non-condensing) relative humidity range. The 8M Nano SOMs are used in a wide range of industrial, medical, agricultural, transportation, Internet-of-Things (IoT), Human-Machine Interface (HMI), edge computing, and machine learning.
